Usage
Transcluded by "lang-xx" templates (e.g. {{lang-nn}})—do not use directly.
Right-to-left
For languages written right-to-left, like Arabic, Hebrew and other, it is advised to set |rtl={{rtl}}
in the language template (e.g. lang-ar, lang-he).
This adds the character U+200F RIGHT-TO-LEFT MARK (‏) to the end of the string (the righthand side, in memory). It is an invisible formatting character, that terminates the R-to-L text. After this, (that is, directly after & outside of the template), all following text is initiated to be left-to-right (English) again.
Italics
Set italic
to
no
for non-italic textyes
(default) for italic text
Category suppression
If you want to suppress category output from the template, use |nocat=true
.
